📋 Decklist Submission

• All decklists must be submitted via Limitless.

• You may only use your submitted decklist for all rounds.

• If your opponent is not using their submitted deck, call a judge.

⚖️ Sportsmanship & Rules

• Rule sharking is NOT allowed. Be cool.

• Don't nitpick minor differences like similar names or alt art cards.

• Be respectful to opponents, staff, and stream viewers—everywhere.

• Disrespect, harassment, or toxicity = DQ.

---

⏰ Check-In

• Tournament check-in opens 1 hour before start time.

• You must check in on Limitless or risk being dropped.

• For each round: Check in during the first 5 minutes.

• If your opponent doesn't show within 5 minutes of both players checking in, call a judge.

• Do not delay your games after checking in. If you're more than 5 minutes late, it's a game loss.

---

🤝 Ties & IDs

• Ties and Intentional Draws (ID) are not allowed in this Quick Fire tournament. All matches must have a winner.

• If the round timer ends and the match is 0-0 or 1-1, both players receive a tie.

• Screenshots of wins are strongly recommended for dispute resolution.

• If you're mid-match and disconnected, the player with the Victory screen gets the win.

---

📺 Streaming & Conduct

• Players may stream, but stream sniping = DQ. Use a delay.

• Any form of cheating, exploit abuse, or misconduct = immediate disqualification.

• If you are banned from the__SAGA's stream, you will be DQ’d from the tournament.

---

💬 Judges & Communication

• Use Limitless chat or public Discord channels for judge communication.

• Be polite. You may appeal rulings, but always respectfully.
